Intern Week 2

Think week went well, overall, but not according to plan. Right now, in my Senior Algebra II classes, I am going at the pace of about one section per week. This is really slow, in my opinion, since most of the material is reviewing things they should already know. When talking with some other teachers, they are already quizzing on the first couple sections of Chapter 2. I'm still not through Chapter 1! I'm giving them a test on what they've learned up to now, but I am definitely going to have to step up the pace a little. The disturbing thing, though, is that some students say that the pace we are at is already too much for them. I'm not sure what to do. I can't cater to the few that are lagging behind the even slower pace but I don't want to leave them in the dust either. My host teacher agrees, though, that we will probably have to up the pace a bit, especially in our regular-level Algebra II class.
